The last step before installing the AirMobile board on a real car is to test the Bluetooth connection
What you see in the video is the AirMobile board mated with the TI LaunchPad board and powered by a Peltier cell. The gray box you see in the video is a PC power supply unit that cools down the cold side of the Peltier cell.
In this condition, there is enough energy to power up the Bluetooth module (you see the module's LED blinking)
On the smartphone, I installed an open-source application that I modified to meet my requirements. The application continuously tries to connect to the AirMobile board. When connection succeeds, sensors data is shown (you see 5 new rectangles appearing on the smartphone's screen). The smartphone's app is also already capable of pushing data to the AirVantage cloud infrastructure (see here for details about how AirMobile handles data)
Here is the video of the test
Hopefully I will be able to install the sensor in the car by the end of the week and see how it behaves!
